(pagkatapos ng isang linggo bigla silang pintawag ni Aruin papunta sa bahay nila, at as usual si Eigh ang pinaka-late.)
Eigh: is your brother there?
(tanong ni Eigh kay Aruin nang tawagan na sya nito.)
Arw: he is not here... so get your ass right here... right now.
Eigh: yah, yah, wahtever.. I\ll be having my shower first.
Evry1: shower!!!!?
(narinig ni Eigh sa background.)
Eigh: you are on loudspeaker?
Arw: yah, and everyone knows you shower in a long span of time.
Eigh: ok ok.. I'll do it fast!
(hinang na ni Eigh ang phone at dumeretso sa shower. Makalipas ang two and a quarter hours, dumating na si Eigh kina Aruin.)
Shey: two and a quarter!
Eigh: yah whatever.
Ghie: so can we start the meeting now?
Arw: oh yah....
(inopen ni Aruin ang computer at pinakita sa kanila ang isang video mula sa youtube.)
Cha: she's pretty.
Jop: yah, who is she?
Arw: Bom...
Ghie: Bom, who?
Arw: my korean childhood friend... she left our country when we were eight years old.
Ghie: and so???
Arw: she's a Korean pop star now...
Eigh: so, does she mean anything to you?
Arw: uhm, nothing really important.
Eigh: nothing important? You waited for me to arrive here after three hours from your original plan, and it's nothing important?
Arw: I mean...
Cha: so what about Grace?
Jop: yah...
Arw: Grace? ow she'll understand... anyways she's a good friend?
Shey: what about the 23?
Arw: ow, it's a sociological family game anyways...
Eigh: game? Grace is not vtreating it as a game.
Arw: ooh, I din;t told her to take it seriously.
Ghie: ow, come on...
Arw: what else would guys want me to say!?
(naiinis na si Aruin)
Eigh: ok guys, let's drop the talk! I brought a Chocolate Ice Cream with me come on now.
(napatigil na ang lahat tsaka kumuha ng ice cream ang bawat isa, tahimik sila habang nakain, at si Eigh lang ang sobrang dadak ng dadak. Huminga ng malalim si Eigh.)
Eigh: ok... you know how I hate dead air so much.
Cha: yah, it's getting some kinda irritating... ok we're sorry Arwin.
Ghie: yah, we're happy fr you and for her.
Shey: yah, even though we don't know her that much. So come on, guys... cheer up!
Eigh: ok, Arwin, may we start the karaoke now?
(ngumiti na si Arwin at binuksan na nya ang karaoke, at nagsimula silang magkantahan, magaalasais na nang umuwi sila. Kinabukasan naman sa UST, habang naglalakad si Shey papunta sa kanyang first claa, tinawag sya ng dance instrutor na nakilala nya.)
Inst: hey!
(napalingon si Shey.)
Shey: ow, sir... what is it?
Inst: are you interested for a dance concert for a cause?
Shey: dance concert? for a cause? Yah, sure, when will it be?
Inst: uhm, next Saturday, 4 pm... you'll be dancing with our school's lead dancer.
Shey: oh, ok... so when will the practice be?
Inst: it'll be starting this coming Wednesday. Ok?
Shey: uh, yah sure.
Inst: see you there.
Shey: ok.
(umalis na ang instrustor at nagsimulang magflakad si Shey papunta sa first class nya, habang naghihintay sila sa classroom nagtext sa kanya si Kim.)
Kim: ei Shey! Meet you at McDonalds this lunch.... ok?
(nireplayan ni Shey.)
Shey: ok.. I'll be there.
(nung lunch na dumeretso si Shey sa Mcdo, at nakita nya si Kim na naghihintay dun.)
Shey: hey...
(bati ni Shey sa nakaupong si Kim, habang papaupo naman sya.)
Shey: How long have you been waiting?
Kim: uhm... not much.... 5 minutes maybe...
(pagsisinungaling ni Kim, kanina pa kasi syang umaga naghihintay dun, sapagkat wala syang klase sa araw na iyon.)
Shey: ow, ok... so you wanna order now?
Kim: yah...
(kanina pa hinihintay ni Kim ang tanong na yan sapagkat gutom na gutom na sya.)
Kim: what do you want?
Shey: a salad will do...
Kim: salad?
Shey: yah.
Kim: ow ok...
(tumayo si Kim para magorder, matagal tagal din bago ito nakabalik. Pagbalik nya, pinamunuan ni Shey ang dasal, atsaka sila kumain.)
Kim: you're religious huh?
Shey: uhm, not really... a friend taught me... haha, BTW, have you been invited to the upcoming dance concert for a cause?
Kim: oh yah...
(pagsisinungaling ulit ni Kim, sya kasi ang may pasimuno nun.)
Kim: how about you?
Shey: yah... Sir Fred told me that I'll be dancing with the school's trouppe lead dancer. Do you know him?
(natuk-an si Kim.)
Shey: something wrong?
(tumawa na lang si Kim. Nang uwian na ni Shey, nakita nya si Cha at Ghie.)
Shey: hey guys!
Ghie: Shey!
Shey: going home?
Ghie: yah...
Cha: I'm not... I still have the tutor thinggy, remember?
Shey: oh... so break a leg...
Cha: yah, I'll break his leg.
Ghie: whatver... ok bye Cha... God BLess.
(umalis na ang dalawa, at dumeretso si Cha sa South Building at naghintay nang mga limang minuto bago dumating si Micky.)
Cha: 20 minutes late!
Micky: 20??? It's only 5...
Cha: yah, whatever...
(nagsimula sila sa Algebra 1. At nang matapos sila.)
Cha: get it?
Micky: uhm, yah... sort of...
Cha: ow come on... just say yes if you did get it, and no if you didn't!
(naiinis na si Cha.)
Micky: ok... no!
Cha: ok, that's better!
(inulit ulit ni Cha ang pagtuturo, at unti-unti ring gumagaan ang loob nya sa kausap kasi mukha namang mabait. Nang natapos na sila ng tuluyan.)
Micky: uhm, thanks for the help...
Cha: no problem...
Micky: I'm sorry about blaming you last time... it's just that there's a lot of pressure on me... I mean the team... then my family...
Cha: it's fine I understand... I'm sorry too 'cause I was kinda mad that time.
Micky: it's nothing... so it's getting quite late, want me to bring you home?
Cha: ow, it's just half past 6... I can do it from here...
(di napansin ni Cha na matagal-tagal din pala ang first session nila.)
Micky: ow, come on,... I insist!
Cha: you're not a rapist, right?
Micky: oh, no...
(tumawa silang dalawa.)
Cha: ow, ok... if you'll insist...
(inihatid ni Micky si Cha sa kanilang bahay.)
Cha: bye... thanks.
(paalam ni Cha kay Micky na lumabas pa ng kotse.)
Micky: no problem.. So, until next time?
Cha: yah sure...
